A dying plantation owner in Virginia gives him his freedom, but he is pursued across the country into the old west. Along with fellow ex-slaves, they take up residence in a small dusty town, but the residents are just as racist as back in Virginia. After a shootout in a bar, they decide to help a poor farmer and his half-breed wife defend themselves against a gang led by a preacher. One of only a handful of examples of the western blaxploitation genre.
